A call for bloggers: You are invited to the blog tour for A Mother's Journey.

Blog travel agent Rebecca Boucher http://www.bbtourservices.com/wants to get a very special message out.

This is the story of an incredible and inspirational journey of a mother dedicated to her three children. She was determined to survive a tragic event through faith, hope, and courage.

The mother was severely injured, and her devoted husband and father of her children was killed instantly. She watched her son fight for every breath he took to survive. Her daughters, only three and five years old, were traumatized. The young girls screamed in pain and wondered where their father and brother were.

The mother buried her husband, stood by strongly as her son had surgery after surgery, and went to court to see that the man who changed their lives forever was served with justice. She tried to stay strong and focused for her children. She wasn’t able to grieve the loss of her husband. She made endless medical decisions and stayed with her son in the hospital for many months. She waited to see progress from her comatose son and saw her little girls only on weekends. The girls trying to adjust emotionally and physically to their new life.

This book will make someone think about his or her choices. Making the wrong choice, like doing drugs or driving intoxicated, can have a lasting impact on your life and the lives of others. Someone else’s choices caused this mother’s family to go on a journey that no one should ever have to endure.

If you are interested in participating, please contact Rebecca Boucher by December 18th at any link below: http://www.bbtourservices.com/ http://www.beccab8.blogspot.com/

  • What are the titles of your books? 
    I have several romance books available nationwide; Remembering Zane, Fat Chances, The Unfaithful Widow, My Haunting Love, Toothless, Like Father Like Daughter and several stories in anthologies.

  • Please tell us a little bit about your books. 
    Most of my books are romance books. My Haunting Love is my first YA paranormal romance. Toothless is a horror short story and Like Father Like Daughter is a collection of short stories including a story written by my father, Jim Johnston.

  • How did you come up with your book ideas? 
    Don’t laugh, but a lot of my ideas come to me while I am shaving dogs asses. I am a full time dog groomer and a part time writer. I have been grooming for over seventeen years and could probably do it with my eyes closed, not that I ever would. LOL I guess my mind goes into overdrive then because I am relaxed, of course, occasionally I get a dog that likes to give me a hard time.  

  • What are your plans for the future? 
    I hope to have my three book series, Roller Coaster Luv published in 2014 and possibly a few others.

  • What is your day job? 
    I groom puppies. I call all dogs of all ages puppies.

  • What is your preferred genre to write? 
    I much prefer to write romance but occasionally I like to write a paranormal story. I am a ghost hunter so I love spooky things.

  • How did you become a writer? 
    After reading The Twilight Saga, I joined a Stephenie Meyer fan page on Facebook. They used to have writing contests every week and one day I wrote a story. It got rave reviews so I continued to write, that’s when Roller Coaster Luv popped into my head and well…here I am with five published books and several ebooks. If someone would have come to me ten years ago and told me I was going to write a book I would have said they were crazy, but that just goes to show you that life is so unpredictable. Things change. People change. Sometimes for the good, sometimes for the bad. So if you can, make it the good!!

  • Are you a planner, complete with detailed outlines, or do you fly by the seat of your pants when writing? 
    Fly by the seat baby!!!!!!! I sit down at my laptop and let my fingers and mind flow…

  • What is the best writing advice that you have ever been given?
    Just keep writing. No matter how many bad reviews or rejections you get from agents or publishers, just keep writing.

  • What advice would you give a new writer? 
    The same thing. Keep writing and never quit your day job. LOL And if your story gets a bad review, shake it off, don’t let it bother you. Remind yourself that you will NOT please everyone and then think of E.L. James’s Fifty Shades of Grey and how many one star reviews she got. She doesn’t care…she’s laughing all the way to the bank.

  • What other projects do you have in the works at the moment? 
    Roller Coaster Luv….this book is going to make J.S. Wilsoncroft a household name. LOL

  • What surprises can we expect from you in the future? 
     Hell if I know. I surprise myself every day. 

  • If you could journey into any of your books, interacting with the characters, which would it be and why? 
    Greg Thomas from The Unfaithful Widow….he’s a Prince. Need I say more? And his father Bart Thomas, I just loved his personality. You can just imagine how pissed off I was at myself when I killed him off. I was saying, “Jamie, what the hell is wrong with you?”

  • What public appearances do you have planned in the future? 
    I have done several Barnes and Noble signings in Pennsylvania. I would love to do one in New York City. I have been invited to go to Maine to a convention in August. So, I’m pretty excited about that.

  • Is there anything else you’d like to share with your fans? 
    My fans? Doesn’t that sound wonderful? I am so grateful for them, my family and friends. They are the ones that keep me motivated to keep writing. I know I don’t say it enough and I truly apologize.


On behalf of Write More Publications and on behalf of myself, thank you!

Calling all bloggers: Blog tour alert -- Get in on the fun!

Click on this image to expand it. Sorry I had to shrink it. It bumped into my Blog archive!
You are cordially invited to the next blog tour sponsored by BB Tour Services and Write More Publications. We will be touring The Twistedly True Tale Of Ruby Hood by Stephanie Greenhalgh. This book takes a new spin on an old fairy tale. Take a look:
In the small town of Woodsville, self-assured Ruby Hood becomes tangled in more than traditional teenage angst. With the Homecoming Dance looming, everything at Woodsville High appears normal, but things are not as they seem. Ruby meets a cute boy with a lopsided grin, Dylan Hunter. She flirts shamelessly with the football star, Kent Wolf, and finds herself in a barrage of harsh verbal altercations with his stunning yet wicked sister, Kayla Wolf. Thankfully, she finds solace in her friend, Lilly Fair. Through a series of odd and painful events, Ruby discovers her true calling and the responsibilities that come with her new power and position. Despite her heartache and sorrow, will Ruby find the inner strength not only to protect herself, but also to keep the Wood safe at all cost?
Does this sound like a book for you? Sign up by November 19th....
This tour will run from November 25th to December 9th. All days are open on a first come first serve basis. When responding to the email just let me know which date you would like. Review copies are available, or you can choose to post a preformatted post. Prizes for your followers will include; a $25.00 Amazon gift card, 2 eBook copies and a signed paperback copy.

It's NaNoWriMo. Sorry, I'm 10 days late.

NaNoWriMo Okay, maybe I'm oblivious to some of the goings on in the writer-oriented social media. For the longest time, I thought NaNoWriMo was a Japanese anime character. I envisioned a little purple, oblong creature with googly eyes that looked like a crawling pill for chronic heartburn. I could almost hear it's squeaky chipmunk voice. Alright, I'll settle down. Let's talk about the now ongoing National Novel Writing Month.

I Googled NaNoWriMo and found http://nanowrimo.org/

The website immediately greeted me with "Are you ready to write a novel?"
The site offers you a chance to:
  •  Write a novel in a month 
  • Track your progress online
  • Get pep talks and support
  • Meet fellow writers online and in person
 In addition to the above, NaNoWriMo offers a graphic design marathon called "30 Covers, 30 Days".
You can also get deals or win prizes from sponsors such as Create Space and Watt Pad.
http://nanowrimo.org/sponsor-offers

You are not alone! NaNoWriMo offers access to pep talks any time: http://nanowrimo.org/pep-talks
Here are the 2013 Pep Talkers: http://nanowrimo.org/pep-talks#current
Toward the bottom of this page, the Pep Talk Archive has links to the Young Writers Program, which has its own selection of YA Pep Talkers each year.

National Novel Writing Month was established in 1999. It is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit that believes stories matter. This year, we anticipate half a million writers joining our noveling adventure.
During NaNoWriMo 2012,
Over 250 NaNoWriMo novels have been traditionally published. They include Sara Gruen’s Water for Elephants, Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus, Hugh Howey’s Wool, Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl, Jason Hough’s The Darwin Elevator, and Marissa Meyer’s Cinder. See a full list of our published authors.

For those of you in the know about NaNoWriMo, I wish you success with your 30-day novel!
